Guide / Every rule

A decision may have no way out

The check flow/no-default, in the group Process flow.

AdvicePro

Why it matters

A gateway with conditions and no default flow stops the instance with an incident when none of them holds.

How to fix it

Mark one outgoing flow as the default.

Where you see it

The Problems tab lists it under How it runs and outlines the path that leads there. In a terminal, penstock check --only flow reports it as NO-DEFAULT. This check is part of Penstock Pro, and Team in a pipeline.
